Is Thunderbolt really a better interface than let's say USB ?

Hi !
because if the answer is yes this is a very good news because Thunderbolt does not mean necessarily expensive (see link).
I mean, if it is a better interface ... why not jump on it ?!!
What the audio world is waiting for ?
Instead of sticking stubbornly with a lesser format (i.e. USB) ?
Maybe designers take pleasure from the challenge of squeezing a dry lemon ?
There is a word for this attitude ... "‎therapeutic obstinacy".
I got already some "usb endorsement" sounding like ... it is very good for mouse, printer ... then use it for just that.
Apple pcs for instance they have already Thunderbolt on board.
For all the others pcie adapters can be provided.
I am already dreaming of a T-bolt to AES/EBU interface.
Am i missing something ?
Maybe i should take all this less seriously.
Sorry for the outburst.
Have a nice day.
Kind regards,
bg
